Ron ZellerRon Zeller has given of his time and talent to the members of 4-H for more than 20 years. He has been a father figure for several young people and has helped them to get a horse, find boarding, and work with their animal. He is still considered “Dad” by some of these past 4-H members who are now adults.

Ron has served 4-H as a Leader, Project Leader, and Teen Advisor. He has held the offices of President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Committee Chairman for Spokane County Horse Committee. He helped put on events at Interstate Fair. He worked on the Washington State Advisory Board, the Washington State Fair Board, on statewide committees, judged at State Fair, and led in the role of host at State Fair Western Games as an officer from Spokane County. He helps members from across the state and they call him at his home for guidance about the rules or their project. He is a resource for the county and state 4-H staff. He helped write curriculum for the horse program. He handled the equipment for the workshops at WRLF in Spokane.

As a member of the northwest Pattern Racing Association, he helped train several judges in Western Games. These were the judges and are the judges that judge for our Western Games shows. I know that if he is compensated for his 4-H work, he donated it back to the kids.

He continues to be a help to our program by serving as a Judge, teaching clinics, and announcing at shows. He is an electrician by trade and has donated hours wiring a barn for the use of the small animal project members.

He was recognized as the Outstanding Leader of Spokane County in 1994
